The 1974 album was produced by Gary Katz and was written primarily by Walter Becker (bass) and bandleader Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards). The album marked the beginning of Becker and Fagen's roles as Steely Dan's principal members.They enlisted prominent Los Angeles-based studio musicians to record Pretzel Logic, but used them only for occasional overdubs, except for drums, where founding drummer Jim Hodder was reduced to a backing singer, replaced by Jim Gordon and Jeff Porcaro on the drum kit for all of the songs on the album. Steely Dan's Jeff 'Skunk' Baxter played pedal steel guitar and hand drums.Pretzel Logic has shorter songs and fewer instrumental jams than the group's 1973 album Countdown to Ecstasy. Steely Dan considered it the band's attempt at complete musical statements within the three-minute pop-song format. The album's music is characterized by harmonies, counter-melodies, and bop phrasing. It also relies often on straightforward pop influences. The syncopated piano line that opens 'Rikki Don't Lose That Number' develops into a pop melody, and the title track transitions from a blues song to a jazzy chorus.Rolling Stone praised the album, calling Steely Dan the 'most improbable hit-singles band to emerge in ages.''When the band doesn't undulate to samba rhythms (as it did on 'Do It Again, ' it's first Top Ten single), it pushes itself to a full gallop (as it did on 'Reelin' in the Years, ' it's second). These two rhythmic preferences persist and sometimes intermingle, as on 'Rikki Don't Lose That Number, ' which jumps in mid-chorus from 'Hernando's Hideaway' into 'Honky Tonk Women.' Great transition.' - the review said.AllMusic gave the album 5 stars, with reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine noting that 'instead of relying on easy hooks, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen assembled their most complex and cynical set of songs to date.' Dense with harmonics, countermelodies, and bop phrasing, Pretzel Logic is vibrant with unpredictable musical juxtapositions and snide, but very funny, wordplay.The album's cover photo featuring a New York pretzel vendor was taken by Raeanne Rubenstein, a photographer of musicians and Hollywood celebrities. She shot the photo on the west side of Fifth Avenue and 79th Street, just above the 79th Street Transverse (the road through Central Park), at the park entrance called 'Miners' Gate.'After a brief battle with esophageal cancer, Walter Becker died on September 3, 2017 at the age of 67. Steely Dan has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March 2001. VH1 ranked Steely Dan at No. 82 on their list of the 100 Greatest Musical Artists of All Time. Rolling Stone ranked them No. 15 on it's list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time.Tracks:1.

Steely Dan created a sophisticated, distinctive sound with accessible melodic hooks, complex harmonies and time signatures, and a devotion to the recording studio. Becker and Fagen, with producer Gary Katz, gradually changed Steely Dan from a performing band to a studio project, hiring session musicians to record their compositions. The duo didn't perform live between 1974 and 1993. But their popularity nevertheless grew throughout the '70s as their albums became critical favorites and their singles became staples of Adult Oriented Radio and pop radio stations.Like Steely Dan's 1972 debut album Can't Buy A Thrill, Countdown to Ecstasy has a rock sound that exhibits a strong influence from jazz. It comprises uptempo, four-to-five-minute rock songs, which, apart from the bluesy vamps of 'Bodhisattva' and 'Show Biz Kids, ' are subtly textured and feature jazz-inspired interludes. Countdown to Ecstasy was the only album written by Steely Dan for a live band. 'My Old School' features reverent horns and aggressive piano riffs and guitar solos. 'The Boston Rag' develops from a jazzy song to unrefined playing by the band, including a distorted guitar solo by Jeff 'Skunk' Baxter. Jim Hodder's drumming eschews rock music for pop and jazz grooves. Bop-style jazz soloing is set in the context of a pop song on 'Bodhisattva'. Commenting on the album's style and production, Tom Hull says it is 'clean, almost slick', with 'no dissonance, no clutter, ' reminiscent of 1940s bop and 'the overproduced early 60s pop rock.'Countdown to Ecstasy has lyrical themes similar to Can't Buy A Thrill. It explores topics such as drug abuse, class envy, and West Coast excess. 'My Old School' is inspired by a drug bust involving Walter Becker and Donald Fagen at Bard College, 'King of the World' explores a post-Nuclear holocaust United States, and 'Show Biz Kids' satirizes contemporary Los Angeles lifestyles.Rolling Stone described Countdown To Ecstasy as 'another dose of mainstream rock and roll, restating the basic themes of Can't Buy A Thrill, but this time concentrating a bit more on the rocking side of their style.'The original cover painting was by Fagen's then-girlfriend Dorothy White. At the insistence of ABC Records president Jay Lasker, however, several figures had to be added when he found the discrepancy between five band members and three figures on the cover unacceptable. The proofs for the album cover were later stolen during a dispute over the final layout. The back cover features an orchid surrounded by the band and their recording equipment.After a brief battle with esophageal cancer, Walter Becker died on September 3, 2017 at the age of 67. Steely Dan has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March 2001.

Their sound is as slippery as their (lyrical) irony.'Gaucho - the seventh studio album by Steely Dan, released in November 1980 - and Grammy-winner for Best Engineered Non-Classical Recording, was also nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.The sessions for Gaucho represented the band's typical penchant for studio perfectionism and obsessive recording technique. To record the album, the band used at least 42 different musicians, spent over a year in the studio, and far exceeded the original monetary advance given by the record label.During the two-year span in which the album was recorded, the band was plagued by a number of creative, personal and professional problems. MCA, Warner Bros. And Steely Dan had a three-way legal battle over the rights to release the album. After it was released, jazz musician Keith Jarrett was given a co-writing credit on the title track after threatening legal action over plagiarism of Jarrett's song 'Long As You Know You're Living Yours.'Gaucho marked a significant stylistic change for the band, introducing a more minimal, groove- and atmosphere-based format. The harmonically complex chord changes that were a distinctive mark of earlier Steely Dan songs are less prominent on Gaucho, with the record's songs tending to revolve around a single rhythm or mood, although complex chord progressions were still present particularly in 'Babylon Sisters' and 'Glamour Profession.' Gaucho proved to be Steely Dan's final studio album that Donald Fagen and Walter Becker would make together until the year 2000. Gaucho reached No. 9 on the U.S. album chart and was certified platinum-selling. 'Hey Nineteen' reached No. 10 on the U.S. Singles Chart and went to No. 1 in Canada. Pitchfork, in it's review, describes the almost 'pathologically overdetermined production' as elegant, arid and a little forbidding. 'Every last tinkling chime sounds like it took 12 days to mix, because chances are, it did.' The New York Times deemed Gaucho the best album of 1980, beating out Talking Heads' Remain in Light and Joy Division's Closer.Founded by core members Walter Becker (bass) and Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards), Steely Dan's popularity rose throughout the late 1970s on, and their seven albums throughout that period of time blended elements of jazz, rock, funk, R\u0026amp;B, and pop.

Their first studio album after a 20-year hiatus, the album was released on February 29, 2000. At Metacritic. Com, which assigns a normalized rating on a scale of 100 to reviews from professional critics, the album drew a 'generally favorable' average score of 77, based on 13 reviews. Writing in March 2000 for The Village Voice, Robert Christgau applauded the music as an excellent 'rock comeback' and a 'jumpier and snappier, sourer and trickier and less soothing' iteration of the jazz pop featured on Steely Dan's 1977 album Aja, describing it as 'postfunk. ' Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic appreciated the 'sharp humor' in the lyrics, but was especially impressed by the music's 'depth and character, ' as he observed 'nearly endless permutations within their signature sound. 'Acoustic Sounds is honored to reissue the Steely Dan album catalog in a way that best shares the group's unmistakable sound with decades of devoted fans.

The single 'Black Friday' also charted at No. 37. Pitchfork noted: '(Katy song) captures Steely Dan in the thick of it all, still hungry and energized by their early burst of creativity but not taking anything for granted. Before Katy song, Steely Dan was a rock band, but this is the record where they became something else. 'Founded by core members Walter Becker (bass) and Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards), Steely Dan's popularity rose throughout the late 1970s on, and their seven albums throughout that period of time blended elements of jazz, rock, funk, R\u0026amp;B, and pop. Steely Dan created a sophisticated, distinctive sound with accessible melodic hooks, complex harmonies and time signatures, and a devotion to the recording studio. Becker and Fagen, with producer Gary Katz, gradually changed Steely Dan from a performing band to a studio project, hiring session musicians to record their compositions. The duo didn't perform live between 1974 and 1993. But their popularity nevertheless grew throughout the '70s as their albums became critical favorites and their singles became staples of Adult Oriented Radio and pop radio stations.Katy Lied was notable for Becker and Fagen being intially unhappy with the album's sound quality owing to an equipment malfunction with the then new dbx noise reduction system. Working with engineers at dbx, the sound was corrected and the album ultimately became successful, but Fagen and Becker still refused to listen to the completed version.Katy song also marks the first appearance of singer Michael McDonald on a Steely Dan album. Best known for his soulful voice as a member of the Doobie Brothers, McDonald is a five-time Grammy winner and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Doobie Brothers in 2020.The album cover features a picture of a katydid, a 'singing' (stridulating) insect related to crickets and grasshoppers. This is most likely a pun on the album's title; the 'singing' of a katydid sounds as though they're saying 'Katy did, Katy didn't.' Lyrics in the song 'Doctor Wu' include 'Katy tried, I was halfway crucified' and 'Katy lies, you can see it in her eyes.' The premise of the theme of Katy 'lying' is based on a quote from Denny Dias when he came to the studio to play on 'Your Gold Teeth II.' Jeff Porcaro, then only 21 years old, played drums on all the songs except 'Any World (That I'm Welcome To), ' which features legendary session drummer Hal Blaine.After a brief battle with esophageal cancer, Walter Becker died on September 3, 2017 at the age of 67. Steely Dan has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March 2001. VH1 ranked Steely Dan at No. 82 on their list of the 100 Greatest Musical Artists of All Time.

Complete with upgraded, state of the art sounds, complete original art, notes and lyrics, plus newly penned liner notes by none other than Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, the Dan themselves. Ever the primary conceit of mainstays Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, 1976's The Royal Scam marks the first time the Steely Dan duo actually owned up to the fact. Musically, it's their edgiest, most guitar-driven record (thanks to Becker and a murderer's row of session greats that includes Larry Carlton, Elliot Randall, Dean Parks, and Denny Dias). Lyrically, the songs cut an ever-sardonic, presciently discomforting slice of modern life that was a couple decades ahead of the game (who else was extolling the virtues of condom-couture, à la \"The Fez,\" mid-Me Decade?). Though it didn't garner the radio attention of Aja, its more jazz-suffused, multiplatinum follow-up, Scam boasts a diverse, occasionally muscular musical rhetoric and some of the Dan's most telling portraits (the deranged, yet all-too-familiar killer of \"Don't Take Me Alive,\" \"Kid Charlemagne\"'s drug-culture celebrity, the tropical convenience of a \"Haitian Divorce\"). Small wonder many Dan fans consider it their best. --Jerry McCulley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56539486093686,"sku":"0008811205126","price":8.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_735448_jpg.jpg?v=1761660207"},{"product_id":"0603497808328-two-against-nature","title":"Two Against Nature","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSteely Dan's Grammy-winning 2000 comeback album 'Two Against Nature' finally arrives in a stunning 180-gram clear vinyl edition.

Each Hybrid SACD reissue in the Analogue Productions Steely Dan Series is newly remastered by Bernie Grundman from the original master tape direct to DSD. The result is more sonic punch and more expression captured from the tape.Founded by core members Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, Steely Dan's popularity rose throughout the late 1970s on, and their seven albums over that period of time blended elements of jazz, rock, funk, R\u0026amp;B, and pop. Steely Dan created a sophisticated, distinctive sound with accessible melodic hooks, complex harmonies and time signatures, and a devotion to the recording studio. Becker and Fagen, with producer Gary Katz, gradually changed Steely Dan from a performing band to a studio project, hiring session musicians to record their compositions. The duo didn't perform live between 1974 and 1993. But their popularity nevertheless grew throughout the '70s as their albums became critical favorites and their singles became staples of Adult Oriented Radio and pop radio stations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57484147392886,"sku":"0753088014260","price":37.12,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_10363016_2739205_20260317015656.jpg?v=1773718196"},{"product_id":"0081227805036-alive-in-america-180g","title":"Alive In America","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor the first time on vinyl, Steely Dan’s first official live album, Alive in America, captures the immaculate jazz-rock precision and wit of their triumphant 1990s return to the stage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57691249705334,"sku":"0081227805036","price":47.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_14983050_1180432_20260417015133.jpg?v=1776685297"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/collections\/steely-dan.oembed?page=4","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
